Due to the fact that the story hasn’t evolved as he expected, Allu Arjun is said to have called off his “Icon” to be directed by Venu Sriram of Oh My Friend and MCA fame. But then, producer Dil Raju is someone who makes the directors do required amendments in a script as sought by heroes and then takes off that film.
Currently, Allu Arjun is busy wrapping Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo and then he moves to Sukumar’s film. Understanding this, Dil Raju has planned in such a way that director Venu Sriram will be handling Pink remake with Pawan Kalyan before coming back to Icon. In the meantime, when #AA20 and Pawan’s Pink are on sets, Dil Raju will make sure that “Icon” is changed to Allu Arjun’s liking.
So, we must say that Icon is very much in the queue but will happen only after Pawan’s Pink comes out. On the other hand, with Trivikram getting ready to give dialogue version for the Pink remake, Venu Sriram should be focusing only on the making of the film as he has no burden of either creating story or writing dialogues for it.
